OUR STORY

Since 2020, Nine to Three has been helping bold brands grow with strategy, creative, and intention. We're a tight-knit collective of BIPOC creatives and digital strategists building bold, thoughtful marketing for companies. Whether it’s launching national campaigns, scaling small businesses, or creating digital content, we approach every project with heart, transparency, and a deep respect for storytelling. We love working with small businesses, big brands, individuals, and everything in between.

Hi, I’m Lesly.

Founder, Strategist and Creative of Nine to Three.

I bring 12+ years of marketing experience and a deep love of strategy that moves the needle. My early years as a book-obsessed, art-loving kid led me to Savannah College of Art and Design, where I earned a BFA in Fashion Marketing & Management with a minor in Graphic Design.

Before launching Nine to Three, I spent years behind the scenes building systems, campaigns, and entire marketing departments for other companies—teaching Fiber Arts, joining the eCommerce team at Alternative Apparel, launching my own vintage clothing brand (Tchoup Vintage), and eventually stepping into leadership roles as Digital Strategist and Marketing Director at a few marketing and eCommerce agencies. I was helping brands grow from the inside out.

When the world shifted in 2020, I decided it was time to do the same for myself.

Nine to Three was born out of that moment: a desire to work with intention, on my own terms, and with brands whose values align with mine. Today, I lead a tight-knit team of BIPOC creatives and strategists, helping businesses grow with intention and purpose.

Whether I'm hand-building clay vessels or building digital ecosystems, my work is rooted in connection. Raised in New Orleans, shaped by Atlanta, and forever guided by intention and impact.
